How Do I Not Show A Field If The Field Contains Nothing?
Jun 1, 2007
I'm making address labels and within the table that I'm using there are 2 address fields called Address1 and Address2. The majority of the records do not use Address2, but some do. Is there an expression in VB that I can write so that if Address2 is blank, it will not show Address2?
Here's my snippet so far. It's inside a text box inside a list box in the layout of reporting in visual studio 2005.
Code Snippet
=RTrim(Fields!FirstName.Value) & " " & Fields!LastName.Value & vbCrLF &
Fields!Address1.Value & vbCrLF & Fields!Address2.Value & vbCrLF &
RTrim(Fields!City.Value) & ", " & Fields!State.Value & " " & Fields!ZipCode.Value
This code produces the following if there is no Address2:
John Doe
234 W. Nowhere St.
Seattle, WA 77658
How can I make it so that it will know that Address2 is blank and to return this:
John Doe
234 W. Nowhere St.
Seattle, WA 77658
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I can't seem to find a sample code, either here or on the net - - so I'll go ahead and ask...
What I'm looking for is a sample of how to query a database, so that I can populate a listbox with the table names from a database - - and then, populate another listobx with the field names from the database, in order to build a user-driven sql statement builder....
either of the above (at least the field name part) - either a code sample, or a link, will be greatly appreciated) - -
Thanks

Hi All,
I want to show 0, if the field contains NULL values.
I use the following expression.
=IIf(Fields!MTD_TotGrossBKCOAmt.Value = "NULL" , SUM(Fields!MTD_TotGrossBKCOAmt.Value), 0 )
But this works if the field contains only NULL values.
If it has a value, then it shows as #Error
Can anyone tell me how to make this work?
Thanks

Hi there
We have a web application (database) that uses one field called Application and another called TicketType.
When a user fills out a ticket they can choose up to 3 levels of this field.
Eg Application, Application2, Application3
Eg TicketType, TicketType2, TicketType3
The extra two levels not being compulsory.
I am using sql server 2005 // Reporting Services
My query is as below:
SELECT Ticket.TicketNumber, Ticket.CreatedDate, Application_2.ApplicationName AS Application, Application_1.ApplicationName AS [App 2],
Application.ApplicationName AS [App 3], TicketType_2.TicketTypeName AS Tickettype, TicketType_1.TicketTypeName AS [Type 2],
TicketType.TicketTypeName AS [Type 3], Ticket.Description, Company.CompanyName
FROM Ticket INNER JOIN
TicketType AS TicketType ON Ticket.TicketTypeID = TicketType.TicketTypeID LEFT OUTER JOIN
TicketType AS TicketType_1 ON TicketType.ParentTicketTypeID = TicketType_1.TicketTypeID LEFT OUTER JOIN
TicketType AS TicketType_2 ON TicketType_1.ParentTicketTypeID = TicketType_2.TicketTypeID INNER JOIN
Application AS Application ON Ticket.ApplicationID = Application.ApplicationID INNER JOIN
Company ON Application.CompanyID = Company.CompanyID FULL OUTER JOIN
Application AS Application_1 ON Application.ParentApplicationID = Application_1.ApplicationID FULL OUTER JOIN
Application AS Application_2 ON Application_1.ParentApplicationID = Application_2.ApplicationID
WHERE (Ticket.CreatedDate >= @StartDate)
ORDER BY Ticket.TicketNumber
End result looks like this:
Application
App 2
App 3
TicketType
Type 2
Type 3

Ultimately I would like the Application (TicketType) fields to have the Master Information in it and the other two fields populated in order as well.
Can someone help please.

I'm new to SQL and I'm trying to write a statement to satisfy the following:
If [Field1] contains text from [Field2] then return [Field3] as [Field4].
I had two tables where there were no matching keys. I did a cross apply and am now trying to parse out the description to build the key.

I am trying to script a case when to achieve the following.
I have a table of measures with certain threshold. The threshold direction can either be > or < so I want to create a field that shows if the measure hits that threshold or not to be later picked up in SSRS. So a nested case when?
CASE WHEN M.[Threshold Direction] = '>' THEN
CASE WHEN A.[Value] > M.[Threshold] THEN 'GREEN'
CASE WHEN A.[Value] < M.[Threshold] THEN 'RED'
ELSE ''
END END END AS 'Condition'Is this at all possible?

I need to pass in null/blank value in the date field or declare the field as string and convert date back to string.
I tried the 2nd option but I am having trouble converting the two digits of the recordset (rs_get_msp_info(2), 1, 2))) into a four digit yr. But it will only the yr in two digits.
The mfg_start_date is delcared as a string variable
mfg_start_date = CStr(CDate(Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 3, 2) & "/" & Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 5, 2) & "/" & Mid(rs_get_msp_info(2), 1, 2)))
option 1
I will have to declare the mfg_start_date as date but I need to send in a blank value for this variable in the stored procedure. It won't accept a null or blank value.
With refresh_shipping_sched
.ActiveConnection = CurrentProject.Connection
.CommandText = "spRefresh_shipping_sched"
.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("ret_val", adInteger, adParamReturnValue)
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("@option", adInteger, adParamInput, 4, update_option)
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("@mfg_ord_num", adChar, adParamInput, mfg_ord_num_length, "")
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("@mfg_start_date", adChar, adParamInput, 10, "")
Set rs_refresh_shipping_sched = .Execute

I embedded a SQL query in excel that gets some datetime fields like "TASK_FINISH_DATE" .
How can I convert a datetime field to a date field in SQL in a way that excel will recognize it as a date type and not a text type?
I tried:
CONVERT(varchar(8),TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CONVERT(Date,TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CAST(TASK_FINISH_DATE as date)
**all of the above returned text objectes in excel and not date objects.

I am trying to drag data from Informix to Sql Server. When I kick off the package
using an OLE DB Source and a SQL Server Destination, I get DT_DBDATE to DT_DBTIMESTAMP
errors on two fields from Informix which are date data ....no timestamp part
I tried a couple of things:
Created a view of the Informix table where I cast the date fields as datetime year to fraction(5), which failed.
Altered the view to convert the date fields to char(10) with the hopes that SQL Server would implicitly cast them
as datetime but it failed.
What options do I have that will work?

I have a very strange situation. I've increased the size of an NVARCHAR field from 8 to 9 in a database table. The format of the data that I enter will either be an 8 character field (123456-8) or a 9 character field (1234567-9). The '-' is critical.
It used to only accept the 8 character version, but after increasing the field size, if I try to insert the 9 character field version, it gets truncated after the '-', as though it's still only allowing 8 characters. But that only occurs when I include the '-' or other such characters like '#'. If I try to insert 1234567a9, it works. The following explains the outcomes:
Inserted Value -> Result in table
123456-8 -> 123456-8 *Correct
1234567-9 -> 1234567- *Wrong
123456789 -> 123456789 *Correct
1234567#9 -> 1234567# *Wrong
1234567a9 -> 1234567a9 *Correct
Why is it that characters such as '-' and '#' are truncating the value, but only if the string is 9 chars long?
I'm currently using a direct t-sql insert statement in SQLExpress. The field is a simple NVARCHAR(9) field.

How can I print a field that is in the dataset on each page? I added a textbox in the Page Header and use =Fields!ProjectName.value in the value property. I got an error "Fields cannot used in page header and footer."
How can I have the table header shows on each page? Currently if the data goes to the second page, there is no table header.

A date field in a report returns the date value as:
2015-07-01 13:30:27.000
Is there any way I can script this to appear as:
01 July 2015 (or 01-07-2015 or 01/07/2015) - basically to cut out the hours, minutes and seconds?
The best I have managed is: CONVERT (varchar(17),DATE,113) AS Date1 but this still leaves me with:
01 July 2015 13:30

Hi,
I'm importing an Access database to SQL Server 2000.
The issue I ran into is pretty frustrating... All Memo fields that get copied over (as Text fields) appear to be fine and visible in SQL Server Enterprise Manager... except when I display them on the web via ASP - everything is blank (no content at all).
I didn't have that problem with Access, so I ruled out the possibility that there's something wrong with the original data.
Is this some sort of an encoding problem that arose during database import?
I would appreciate any pointers.

I have a table called BidItem which has another table calledBidAddendum related to it by foreign key. I have another table calledBidFolder which is related to both BidItem and BidAddendum, based on acolumn called RefId and one called Type, i.e. type 1 is a relationshipto BidItem and type 2 is a relationship to BidAddendum.Is there any way to specify a foreign key that will allow for thedifferent types indicating which table the relationship should existon? Or do I have to have two separate tables with identical columns(and remove the type column) ?? I would prefer not to have multipleidentical tables.

I am trying to populate a field in a SQL table based on the valuesreturned from using substring on a text field.Example:Field Name = RecNumField Value = 024071023The 7th and 8th character of this number is the year. I am able toget those digits by saying substring(recnum,7,2) and I get '02'. Nowwhat I need to do is determine if this is >= 50 then concatenate a'19' to the front of it or if it is less that '50' concatenate a '20'.This particular example should return '2002'. Then I want to take theresult of this and populate a field called TaxYear.Any help would be greatly apprecaietd.Mark

I know there has to be a way to do this, but I've gone brain dead. Thescenario..a varchar field in a table contains a date range (i.e. June 1,2004 - June 15, 2004 or September 1, 2004 - September 30, 2004 or...). Theusers have decided thats a bad way to do this (!) so they want to split thatfield into two new fields. Everything before the space/dash ( -) goes intoa 'FromDate' field, everything after the dash/space goes into the 'ToDate'field. I've played around with STRING commands, but haven't stumbled on ityet. Any help at all would be appreciated! DTS?

Hi all,
i've a reasonable amount of experience with MS Access and less
experience with SQL Server. I've just written an .NET application that
uses an SQL Server database. I need to collate lots of data from around
the company in the simplest way, that can then be loaded into the SQL
Server database.
I decided to collect the info in Excel because that's what most people
know best and is the quickest to use. The idea being i could just copy
and paste the records directly into the SQL Server database table (in
the same format) using the SQL Server Management Studio, for
example.
Trouble is, i have a problem with line feed characters. If an Excel
cell contains a chunk of text with line breaks (Chr(10) or Chr(13))
then the copy'n'paste doesn't work - only the text up to the first line
break is pasted into the SQL Server database cell. The rest is not
pasted for some reason.
I've tried with MS Access too, copying and pasting the contents of a
memo field into SQL Server database, but with exactly the same problem.
I've tried with 'text' or 'varchar' SQL Server database field formats.
Since i've no experience of using different types of databases
interacting together, can someone suggest the simplest way of
transferring the data without getting this problem with the line feeds?
I don't want to spend hours writing scripts/programs when it's just
this linefeed problem that is preventing the whole lot just being
cut'n'pasted in 5 seconds!
cheers
Dominic

Hello,
I have a table with a column that is currently a varchar(50), but I want to convert it into an int. When I try to just change the type in design mode I get an error that conversion cannot proceed. When I look at the field it appears some of the entries have special characters appended at the end, I see a box after the value.
How can I remove all speical characters and then convert that field to an int?
Also I tried the following query which did not work as well, same error about conversion.
UPDATE myTable SET field = CAST(field AS int)
